"So, if you don't say what you just said, even if you say it, I won't listen to it!" "Alas!" Emperor Yongjia sighed and said, "You go, I have already said what should be said, if you insist on going your own way, or even hate me, let it be!" “

He tried his best, he really tried his best.

Emperor Yongjia stopped talking, stroked the wooden statue in his hand, and fell into his own thoughts.

Still, suffocating still.

Neither of them said a word, and after a long time, Xuanyuan Qing restrained his mood and stepped out of Yongle Palace.

He wants to go to the cold palace, go to the cold palace to see the queen mother who is suffering and living in endless pain.

I don't know when the night has fallen, and the moonlight is like honey milk, slowly flowing down from the boundless sky, so cold, so lonely and cold.

The cold palace is located in the most remote place of the harem, and no one dares to go anywhere at night.

It's just that the palace people heard not long ago that at night, there will be an eerie and sad cry from the direction of the cold palace, which is no different from a ghost howl.

However, it is very taboo to be haunted in the palace, based on this, no one in the palace dares to make a noise everywhere, so they can only be afraid in their hearts, so that they will not approach the cold palace, so as not to be contaminated with bad luck.

Xuanyuan Qing walked to the door of the cold palace, his legs as heavy as if they had been filled with lead.

Do you want to go in?

Either?

He asked himself inwardly.

In the end, he pushed open the tattered palace door and entered the hall.

"Babble, babble, babble......"

Following the gloomy sorrowful cry that he couldn't hear clearly, Xuanyuan Qing looked over, and immediately, tears poured down in his eyes: "Mother, queen mother......" In such a small jar, only one head was exposed outside, her eyes were dull, her face was full of scars, and her hair was scattered like withered grass, was such a woman his noble and graceful queen mother?

She was, and he knew she was.

If it is more true, is the torture that the man inflicted on the queen mother a little merciful?

She didn't look like a real person, and she didn't even keep her eyes and ears.

He only ordered her limbs to be cut off, and her tongue, eyes, and ears were cut off, but he left for his poor mother. Ha ha! Is it mercy? In doing so, it is better for her to become a real human being, so that she cannot see or hear, her heart will not ache, and she will not live in never-ending misery.

Raised?

Why did he still take up potions to nourish her and prevent her from dying of pain, did he want to watch her slowly suffer physically and mentally to death?

Xuanyuan Qing couldn't bear to look any longer, and tilted his head, as if this could stop the tears from pouring out endlessly in his eyes. "Babbling ......"

The voice from the queen's mouth became more sad than the other.

The dull eyes, the moment they saw Xuanyuan Qing, slowly had a brilliance.

If she heard correctly, the man who looked like the evil seed in a white brocade robe was calling the queen mother.

Is he calling her? Who is he, and why does he call her queen mother?

Qing'er, is he Qing'er?

However, wasn't Qing'er driven out of the capital and went to Lingzhou by that ruthless person? Qing'er, my child, how are you doing in that bitter cold place? "Mother, child, child is here, come to see you!" His mood calmed down slightly, Xuanyuan Qing held back his grief, stopped the tears in his eyes and poured down again, and walked towards the clay pot step by step.

With each step, his heart aches; With every step he took, he felt guilty.

If he knew in advance on the wedding day that she would be cruelly treated by that person and become what she is now, he would not hesitate to save her even if he risked his life. However, he didn't hear it, he didn't hear any wind and grass coming from the palace, "babbling babbling...... The queen saw clearly that the man in white who walked towards her was her son, her beloved son in Lingzhou.

Suddenly, she lowered her eyes and shook her head with tears in her eyes.

No, she doesn't want her son to see her current miserable state.

No, she didn't scare him.

"Mother, mother, it's me, it's me! The child has come to see you. Squatting, Xuanyuan Qing stretched out his hand with difficulty, helped the queen straighten her messy hair, and gently wiped the tears on her face: "I, I'm back, I'm back to the capital, and in two days, I will be the emperor." I will not spare anyone who has harmed you. The queen's head hung very low, almost touching the edge of the mouth of the clay cylinder: "babbling...... "babbling" She shook her head, she didn't want revenge, she just wanted him to be well, as long as she was good, as long as he lived his life peacefully, "Queen Mother, don't you want to see me?" You blame me for not being there for you when you needed me the most, didn't you? I hated myself, and hated myself for not knowing that you had befallen such a catastrophe on my wedding day. “

Hearing Xuanyuan Qing's remorseful and heart-wrenching words, the queen slowly raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes.

She didn't complain, she didn't complain that her son couldn't enter the palace to save her that day.

With that man's hatred for her, sooner or later, she would become as miserable as she is today.

It can't be stopped, no one can stop the man's anger and hatred.

He hated her, hated her for mutilating the woman he loved, hated her for abusing the child he loved for him, and only by letting her live worse than death could he reduce his self-blame and guilt for the woman he loved. "Mother, don't you blame me? Why don't you blame me? Seeing the queen looking at him with tears in her eyes, and kept shaking her head, Xuanyuan Qing's heart ached, and he also shed tears: "If I could save you in time, you wouldn't have become what you are now, you wouldn't be better off than dead, that person is blind, you know?" This is retribution, God's retribution for him. “

Blind? Is it because he recognized the wrong person that he regretted and was blind with guilt?

He hated to recognize her as Ke Meizen, hated that he had a pair of useless eyes, so that everything happened today, didn't he?

It must be so, she is sure, absolutely, yes.

The cold moon, through the broken windows, poured into every corner of the temple, making the surrounding atmosphere more lonely and mournful. "He said to me ridiculously that he doesn't blame anyone now, only resents that he recognized the wrong person back then, and it was his fault that everything happened today." Xuanyuan Qing said word by word, and there was hatred in his voice: "It was his fault, if he hadn't mistakenly recognized you as that woman, how could you marry him again, until I can ascend the throne, I will do it, ......do it, do it" He paused, and after a while, he continued: "When I successfully ascend the throne, I will let him taste all the pain you suffered today, so that he can live better than die, do you say so?" “

The queen shook her head vigorously: "Babble...... "Don't, she doesn't want that person to become like her, life is not as good as life."

She figured it out, she really figured it out in this medicine jar, it was her fault, she shouldn't have cruelly killed her own sister in order to become his daughter, and she shouldn't be afraid that the matter would be exposed, forcing her family to be ruthless to her own sister.

Now, she just wants to die, she just wants to get rid of the pain around her body as soon as possible and leave this world. "You don't want her to be like you, why wouldn't you? She caused you to do this, why don't you want to? “

Xuanyuan Qing's eyes were full of pain, and he asked the queen in a hoarse voice. "Babbling...... "The queen mother just wants you to live well, and I don't want anything else now, if it's for my good, you can send me out of this world," Queen Mother, I can't do it, I can't do it! Mother and son were connected, Xuanyuan Qing seemed to understand her heart from the queen's eyes, he got up and staggered back: "You want me to send you away with my own hands, I can't do it, I can't do it!" You are my mother, who gave birth to me, raised me, loved me, and chong my mother, how can I kill you? How can it be? "He can't do it, he really can't do it." "The queen begged Xuanyuan Qing again, her eyes full ......of longing for death.

She didn't want to live like a monster, she didn't want to survive in this clay pot anymore, "No, Queen Mother, I can't do it, I really can't do it!" Xuanyuan Qing still shook his head, tears like beads with broken threads, dripping constantly: "How can I kill you with my own hands, I can't do it, I really can't do it." He muttered to himself, and the whole person seemed so lonely and helpless in the night wind. babbling babbling...... "Queen Mother, don't force me, I really can't do it, I, I will, I will come to see you again......" Turning around in a panic, Xuanyuan Qing left the cold palace as if he had escaped.

He had to leave, he had to get out of here as fast as he could, and if he stayed there, he would go crazy, he would go mad with heartache. The queen's eyes begging for death slapped him like a whip soaked in salt water, reminding him that it was all his fault, and that he didn't save her in time that day, so that she had her current miserable situation.

Silly child, death is a relief for the queen mother, and it is also your filial piety to the queen mother.

But you fled, but you were frightened by the eyes of the queen mother begging for death, hehe! What a silly boy.

Bitter tears slid down her ugly face to her mouth, and she felt the saltiness brought to her by the tears, and a soft smile overflowed at the corner of her mouth.

Yes, the smile on the corner of her mouth is soft, her heart is like a snake and scorpion, she has ended up in such a miserable situation, but she has not been disliked or disgusted by her son, she should be happy and satisfied. He can't do it, it can only show that his heart is not like hers, he has extinguished his conscience, his six relatives do not recognize it, and he is cruel to his relatives.

I hope that God will protect him in the future, protect him from being harmed, and smoothly ascend the throne as emperor.

In an instant, she thought again.

He pretended to be King Lu, did he want to inherit the throne through his identity?

What about King Naru? Where did King Lu go?

And Ling Wushuang, where did Ling Wushuang go?

Will they let him get on the chair in the Tai Chi Hall as he wishes?

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help but worry about Xuanyuan Qing's situation.

In a town in Xuanyuan, a few passers-by who seemed to be doing business sat in a teahouse on the side of the street, drinking tea to quench their thirst, while whispering all kinds of things they had heard along the way. "Tomorrow is the big day for King Lu to ascend the throne, have you heard?" "I said this brother, you are wrong, tomorrow should be the big day for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne!" "Really, King Lu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are not the same person, what are you and I really doing like this?"

Seeing that the other party was slightly displeased, the person who spoke hurriedly smiled and said: "It's me who is wrong, it's me who is wrong, I shouldn't be more serious with my brother in the title of King Lu and His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Forget it, it's nothing."

The middle-aged man with a slightly unhappy face shook his head and smiled, picked up the tea cup in front of him and drank it.

"Looking back, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can have a great relationship with the goddess today!"

At this time, another person started to talk again.

"The goddess is powerful, and now she is the empress of Daqi. If you want me to say, as long as the goddess is willing, I am afraid that the world will soon be unified. ”

In the private room on the second floor, Xuanyuan Mo and a few people rested here, and with their extraordinary ear power, they heard the conversation downstairs, and suddenly their faces became condensed.

"Lord, do you think it will be the king of Qi who gets a ghost?"

Qu Lao looked at Xuanyuan Mo and said in a deep voice.

"In my opinion, it must be him."

Nanfeng stood in front of the window and looked at the passers-by on the street, caught Qu Lao's words, and said softly.

"Looks like tomorrow should be a good day."

Xuanyuan Mo played with the teacup between his fingers, sneered, and then looked at Ling Wushuang who was sitting beside him, and said softly, "Can you drink it?" ”

"Hmm."

Ling Wushuang nodded obediently.

"Then let's hurry!" Xuanyuan Mo smiled warmly at her, put down the teacup, got up and grabbed her waist, floated out of the window, Qu Lao and Nanfeng glanced at each other, followed closely with the four shadows, and drifted away from the teahouse. "Master, are you angry?" Ling Wushuang raised her head and asked cautiously into Xuanyuan Mo's eyes, just now in the teahouse, she felt it, felt that the master listened to the conversation from downstairs, and felt angry and displeased, if she provoked the master's person, she would definitely not let it be better, "Good, I'm fine!" If you're tired, close your eyes and sleep. Xuanyuan Mo looked at the person in his arms lovingly, his body was undulating on the roof of the street, in order to relieve Ling Wushuang of the evil aura on his body as soon as possible, the group of them all carried light skills from Miao Valley to their destination Lingzhou.

Now I listened to the conversation of passers-by in the teahouse, and drifted to the capital.

Riding a horse is more labor-saving, but considering that Ling Wushuang is pregnant, and her abdomen is getting more and more bulging day by day, for fear that she will make a mistake on the road, Xuanyuan Mo hugged her and hurried with light skills.

Suddenly, a figure landed in front of Xuanyuan Mo. "My subordinates have seen the Lord!"

Dust and dust, hold your fists.

Xuanyuan Mo nodded, his eyes signaling that he would say something if he had something to say.

"The subordinates are derelict in their duties, so that the King of Qi has taken advantage of the loophole and slipped into the capital, and tomorrow he will ascend the throne as the emperor in front of the hundred officials as the lord, and I ask the lord to forgive his sins!" He bowed his head guiltily as he spoke.

"I can't blame you for this, besides, I have heard the news just now, and it is important to hurry now, and I will talk about other things later."

Enthronement? He would like to see how tomorrow's enthronement ceremony will go smoothly.

Xuanyuan Mo sneered in his heart, lifted his breath, and floated out several feet away.

"Ling Guo's affairs have been dealt with?"

Qu Lao floated to the side of the dead and asked.

"Hmm."

Yan nodded, then lowered his eyes and thought for a while, raised his eyes to look at Qu Lao, and said, "Why do I think the princess has become weird." “

Qu Lao's face sank, and he said bluntly: "She has been hit by the puppet sword, and if she doesn't pull out the evil qi on her body, she will become a real puppet." "Who is it?" Who was so cruel to the princess? “

His eyes widened in shock.

"When you get to the capital, you'll know." Qu Lao glanced at the south wind, the figure of the four shadows drifting away, stomped his feet lightly, and his figure rushed out, "Qu Lao, can you tell me now?" Yan mentioned light skills and caught up with Qu Lao and asked.

"It's King Qi, is it King Qi's hand on the princess?" Seeing Qu Lao's answer, Yan recalled the killing intent on Xuanyuan Mo's face when he mentioned King Qi just now, and immediately thought that it was King Qi who injured Ling Wushuang.

A few days ago, Lingzhou.

Princess Leyou couldn't hold back the joy in her heart after getting the news that King Qi had successfully entered the capital and was about to ascend the throne as King Lu, so she decided not to wait for Xuanyuan Qing to send someone to take her into Beijing, but took her personal maid to the capital by way of carriage.

"Master, the slave thinks the atmosphere in the house is so strange these days." When Bihe said this, she paused for a moment, and then continued: "Moreover, the princess took her personal maid out of the house in a carriage before dawn, and it is now sunset, and she has not yet returned to the house. ”

Biyun followed: "And the prince, the prince just returned to the house two days ago, and disappeared again, but the princess said to the outside world, saying that the prince is busy with affairs, and has been busy in the study, and she doesn't see anyone, even if she sends three meals a day to the prince in the study, combined with her behavior today, this is too strange!" ”

"How many days is there to be the enthronement ceremony of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

In Bihe, Biyunyu fell for a while, and Ling Yuyan sat up from the couch, twisted her eyebrows slightly, and asked the two.

"It's not a few days."

Bi He said respectfully.

"Master, the eldest lady is now the empress of Daqi, I heard that she is still pregnant, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loves her so much, she will definitely not let her stay alone in the Daqi Palace, and return to Xuanyuan alone to inherit the throne, you say, do you say will it be, will it be the ...... Wang" Biyun's mind was lively, and she couldn't help but think a little deeply, but when it came to the back, the words in her mouth immediately stopped, "You go on." Seeing that she didn't say any more, Ling Yushan walked to the window, looked at the few flowers blooming sporadically in the garden, and her hands were tightened, and her expression was a little nervous.

Biyun knelt on his knees and said tremblingly: "Master, the slave and maid may have thought too much, you, don't be angry with the slave and maid, the slave and the maid will never dare to criticize the prince in the future." The uneasiness on the master's body, she could see it, how could she be such a bastard, the master was pregnant, if it was because of what she just said, she had a fetal gas, wouldn't it be her sin, Biyun lowered her head, her eyes were full of chagrin and self-blame.

Turning around slowly, Ling Yushan looked at her and said, "I, I'm not angry with you, you get up and speak." Biyun nodded, got up and stood beside Bihe, pursed her lips and stopped talking, "Say, say everything you were going to say to me just now." Ling Yushan suppressed the panic in her heart and whispered softly to Biyun.

"Since the master wants you to say it, you say it."

Bihe tugged at Biyun's sleeve and said in a low voice.

"Master, the slave maid thinks that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in Beijing is the prince, and the prince is pretending." Glancing at Bi He, Bi Yun raised his head to meet Ling Yushan's gaze and said the guess in his heart.

Immediately, Ling Yushan sat down on the chair.

He, he pretended to be King Lu to ascend the throne as the emperor, how dare he take this risk?

Isn't he afraid that the eldest sister and King Lu will rush back from Daqi to expose him? Aren't you afraid that once the matter is revealed, his life will be in danger? “

He didn't know that he already had a child, and he had a child to protect, how could he do this thing that had no chance of winning?

She was going to find him, to stop him, to stop him from walking into a dead end, and finally to die in the capital. "Quick, hurry up and prepare the carriage, I want to enter Beijing, I want to enter Beijing to find the prince." Ling Yushan got up, her voice trembled, and she commanded Bi He and Bi Yun.

Bihe forgot the sky outside the window, and said respectfully: "Master, I'm afraid it's a little late to leave for the capital today, or let's leave tomorrow morning." "No, I have to leave now, if it's too late, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that the prince will have a case, so how can it be good, listen to me, go and prepare the carriage, hurry up!" Ling Yushan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, walking back and forth in the house, when suddenly she paused, bowed her hands to cover her abdomen, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Seeing this, Bihe hurriedly stepped forward to support her: "Master, what's wrong with you?" Quick, go back to the couch and lie down, quick! As she spoke, she helped Ling Yushan to the soft couch: "Master, if you care about the little master in your womb, bear with it, so as not to rush overnight and make the little master appear bad." "I'm going to ask the doctor to come and show the master."

Biyun said a word to Bihe, opened the door, and quickly walked out of the house. "I'm going to stop the prince, I don't want to see him have an accident, Bihe, Bihe, do you know what I'm talking about?" Ling Yushan endured the discomfort in her abdomen, with tears in her eyes, and looked at Bihe sadly: "I like the prince, and now that I have his child, how can I watch him have an accident, so that the child will be born without a father." "Don't worry, master, the prince will be fine, he will be fine, you can relax, as soon as tomorrow dawn, we will leave for the capital." Bihe comforted Ling Yushan with tears in her eyes.

The master likes the prince, she has always known it, but the prince is lukewarm to the master, and now he may have an accident, but the master disregards the safety of himself and the child in his womb, and wants to go to the capital to prevent him from making a big mistake. "During this time, I shouldn't have ignored him, I should have cared about him, and I should have dissuaded him as soon as I heard what you said, but I was content with a corner, selfishly thinking about living my pure life, and blamed me, blamed me for not telling him before he left Lingzhou, telling him that I had his child. If he had known that I was pregnant, he would have thought about the future of my child and canceled the unrealistic thoughts in his heart. “

So annoyed, she was really annoyed, if he had a case, what would she and the child do?

The tears in Ling Yushan's eyes finally dripped down.

She complained from time to time that she was selfish, and she didn't care about Xuanyuan Qing a few days ago.

caused Xuanyuan Qing to take a step of self-destruction.

Bihe glanced at Ling Yushan deeply, raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and said with sadness: "Master, don't complain about yourself anymore, even if you listened to the words of the slave and Biyun a few days ago and went to talk to the prince and persuaded him not to think about something that he didn't have, do you think he will listen to you?" “
